## Post Caption

Ever asked what the contractor actually pays for you?

If you're getting $40/hr through an agency, the builder is probably paying $60–65.

That gap? That's $20–25/hr going to someone who:
— Isn't on site
— Isn't lifting anything
— Isn't pouring anything
— Isn't doing your job

Let's see the receipt they never show you:

→ $25/hr margin on YOUR labour
→ $200/day taken off YOUR work
→ $1,000/week
→ $50,000/year

Fifty grand. From your sweat. Your early starts. Your aching back.

For what? A phone call and a payslip.

On RateRight:

✅ You set your own rate
✅ You keep 100% of it
✅ Contractor pays a $50 flat fee. Once. That's it.

No margin. No percentage. No one sitting between you and your money.

Your work. Your rate. Your money. 🧾

## Visual

Attach the dual-receipt graphic (agency receipt vs RateRight receipt side by side).

Worker-focused version if available — highlight the "You get" line.

## Posting Notes

- **Best time:** Tuesday–Thursday, 12–1 PM or 5–6 PM AEST (lunch break / knock-off)
- **Engage with comments** — especially workers sharing their own stories
- **Expect hot takes** from agency recruiters. Don't argue. Let the numbers do the talking.
